In our family, a lot of time is spent in the kitchen and at the dinner table. At these locations, we talk about many things. The topics are endless. From the food & drink we are enjoying, to stories of the past, we leave the kitchen & table full in the stomach and the mind. So we figured we would share our topics of discussion with you right here! So enjoy this treasure trove of information and imagine that you are "at the table... with Doris Italian Market.

Adding to tradition..... "Who's on First?"

One of our major goals in having a business, is to be a part of the community. Each of our locations have traditions that are recognized by the residents near them, like how the Hollywood Fire Department gets it meats from Doris Italian Market. Now all locations have firefighters and police officers shopping regularly. Sheriff Al Lamberti has been sighted numerous times at our stores.

Myself being in one location for over 15 years, I have witnessed children grow up and go off to college. We have catered families' engagement parties, showers, weddings, Christenings, Birthdays, religious milestones (communion, bar/bat mitzvahs), graduations, and yes, we have even been part of heart breaking events such as a loss in the family.

We take great pride in knowing that many people trust in us to be a part of their precious moments. In doing so, our customers have become part of ours.﻿

Christmas Eve Morning 2010

﻿ The Christmas Holiday is our biggest of the year and also the most special. In Coral Springs, for almost the last 10 years, we take a photograph right before we open. You can see the pictures along the wall when checking out. Seeing over 100+ people waiting outside to get their holiday goodies with such excitement makes all of us at Doris Italian Market & Bakery feel fortunate to have such loyal customers.

Well this Christmas tradition has caught the attention of many. We have a firefighter who is an honorary employee of Doris and hands out the numbers for the bakery before we open. And now, we have a customer that wants to add to our tradition by performing Abbot & Costello's famous "Who's on First" routine. We at Doris Italian Market are honored to have customers help add to our traditions. So if you want to catch the routine, show up at our Coral Springs location by 8 am and watch Bochie & Galup perform at 8:15.Here is a YouTube video of their act. We hope to see you all at our stores this holiday!
